DEFINITIONS OF COVERED OCCUPATIONS

for Public Works Contracts in Oregon
Dan Gardner
Commissioner Bureau of Labor and Industries

Effective: January 1, 2008

DAN GARDNER DOUG MCKEAN COMMISSIONER Deputy Commissioner

BUREAU OF LABOR AND INDUSTRIES January 1, 2008 This booklet contains the Definitions of Covered Occupations (classifications) for public works projects in the State of Oregon. “Trade” or “occupation” is defined in accordance with the prevailing practices of the construction industry in Oregon. This booklet is intended to be a convenient reference guide to be used to classify the duties performed on public works projects. The job classifications/trades normally used in the construction industry are represented by the job classifications used in this publication. Find the definition that most closely matches the actual work being performed by the worker; this will determine the occupation title/classification to be used in determining the correct prevailing wage rate to pay the worker. It is important to note that it is the work performed by the employee, not the worker’s title or qualifications, that determines which classification applies. These definitions are effective January 1, 2008. If you identify any error in this publication, or if you have any questions regarding the application of the state PWR laws, or if you have questions about how to classify workers, please contact the Wage and Hour Division, Prevailing Wage Rate Unit at (971) 673-0839. Please keep this booklet for future reference. It is also available on BOLI’s web site at www.oregon.gov/BOLI. You will be notified should changes occur. Note: The prevailing wage rate (PWR) law requires the submission of a written request to add a trade to the prevailing wage rate determinations. Anyone may request the consideration of an additional classification by writing to the PWR Coordinator, Prevailing Wage Rate Unit, Wage and Hour Division, 800 NE Oregon Street #1045, Portland, OR 97232. The request must include the name of the proposed trade, the minimum education required, a description of the skills required and the tools used (see OAR 839-025-0006).
